Queer things happen in this pardon
business. Historian l.. b. B. Proctor,
author OF Bench and Bar and several
other standard works, was telling me the
other day OF a peculiar pardon case under
Governor Seward. Mr.. Proctor was a
student in Governer Stewards law office
in Auburn when Judge Samuel Batch
ford was a partner OF Seward. man
and his wife had been convicted OF Il
crime and both were sent TO state Prison.
He was sent TO Auburn, and she was
serving a term in Sing Sing. sympathy
had been aroused for the woman, and u
petition signed by many influential
names was presented TO Governor Seward
for her pardon. After mature cOnSIdcr!-
ton he decided TO grant II, and on his
way to New York one day stopped at
Sing Sing and delivered the pardon papers
himself-au unusual thing. The woman s
name was Frances and her husband )
name was Francis. She was handed the
pardon and walked out. Seeing that the
masculine form "Francis,' appeared IN
the pardon, she took a train at once Tor
Auburn and presented the pardon To the
Warden with the statement that she had
lust been pardoned by Governor Seward,
and been allowed TO bring her husband s
pardon in person. The Warden looked
AT il. 1t called for the release Of the
man. and he was brought out, handed
the pardon, and allowed 10 90 free.
When Governor Seward found out the
mistake he thought it better to say moth
ing about it, and the prisoner was never
returned,

Marvellous Horsemnnship.

4 st. Petersburg correspondent, writing
to the London Standard says:
"This morning witnessed wonderful
display oi h0rSemanship. 1t took place
in the Pctrohsky Park. Here, in the
presence Of the Grand Duke Nicholas,
and most OF the foreign officers and
guests. the regiment of COSsack Guards
went through an extraordinary series of
exercises which threw the most daring
ieats of the circus in the shade The en-
tire regiment passed at full callop in
loose order, with many OF the men stand
ing upright in their saddles, others upon
their heads with legs in the air, many
lcaping upon the ground and then into
the saddle again at full speed, some
sprinEing over their horses heads, and
picking up stones from the ground, and
vet rcganing their seat. While per-
forming these fcats all were brandishirg
their Sdbres and firing pistols, thro wing
their CarbIncS into the air and catching
them again, and yelling like man!scs.
Some men went past in pairs standing
with 4 leg on each others hOrses-one
wild fellow carried off another dressed as
a woman. The effect OF the scene wAa
absolutely bewildcring and it seemed as
If the whole regiment had gone mad.
Upon signal being given, the regiment
divided into two parts. One rode off /;
then halted and made their horses lie
down on tho ground beside them, wait
rng a. in war the approach Of the enemy.
The other section OF the regiment then
charged down, and in an instant every
horce was on his feet, every rider in his
saddle, and with 4 wide yell they rode at
their supposed enemy. When the man
urvrcs were over the regiment rode past
singing, and uncommonly well together,
a military chorus. Altogether it was a
marvellous exhibition OF daring horse
mau~hip, and one hardly knew whether
to admire the docility and mcttle OF the
stecds or the skill and courage of the
riders. All the foreign officers and
guests were no less astonished than de-
lighted

New Metropolitan Theater.

Mrs. Langtry, the famous beauty, is to
appear tonight for the first time in Sacra-
mento, in the drama, The Wife's Peril. -
Sheis supported by her own company, one
that is very expensive" says the local
manager and that makes his financial ven
ture precarious one, and necessitates star
prices. Mr.. Coghlan is leading man of the
troupe and an actor of high merit. Mrs.
Langtry, it is claimed by her friends, has
by hard study and devotion to the drama.
won place in dramatic walks of a superior
order. The New York Graphic declares
that she is infinitely better actress than
when she first appeared. The New York
SPIRIT 81 the Times says: She has worn
the dramatic diadem, and wears it worth
ily.n The New York Times, Herald. Star
and NelcS, pronounce Der Lady of Lyons"
TO be of the first order, and in some of the
notices declare her TO be the ideal Pauline,
Speaking of her in The Wife's Peril" the
New York World says the play fits her ad-
mirably; "a lovely wOman-she now asserts
in the very strongest and most uncontro-
vertible way her title to the term actress. 5"
The Sun, OF the same date. says: "She is
an excellent actress, and has become so by
intelligent persistence" This evening the
Sacramento public will have the first op-
portunity to judge of the correctness of
these quoted judgments. The box-sheet is
already well filled and the promise is that
the company will be received by a large
audience. Robert NJ. Eberle, a well-known
manager and actor, arrived from San Fran
cisco last evening to receive the company
on its arrival from the East this morning,
and arrange for its San Francisco dates.
He says that the public who have consid-
cred Mrs. Langtry only as famous beauty
will be most agreeably surprised by her
position in dramatic art.

About 10 o'clock Wednesday night two
shrieks startled the people residing in the
neighborhood Of Twelfth and H streets.
They were not such efforts as timid maiden
might be expected to waste her breath
upon if a frog or toad should Unexpectedly
cross her path while promenading, but
business shrieks, and there was a gen.
eral opening of doors and windows, and a
display of light-colored evening wear as
people anxiously endeavored to learn the
cause of the alarm. 1t was ascertained
that three ladies, residing in the northern
portion of the city, we're going home,
when, as they passed the alley on Twelfth
street, between G and II, two men who
had been leaning against brick wall
started toward them, and deliberately
looked into their faces as though bent
upon mischief. All of the ladies were
frightened, but one of them opened her
mouth and the people for blocks knew that
she was still alive Her companions
might have expressed themselves also, but
she did such excellent justice to the occa-
sion that they desisted. The men turned
back into the alley one of them eiaeulat-
ing a Bible word suggestive of warm eli
mate, and ran from the scene as fast as
their limbs could carry them

Becoming Enthused.

The REcoRD-UNoN's baseball editor >
has received a note from young lady who
is evidently an enthusiastic admirer of the
national game, in which she suggests :
Don't you think the Atlas should have a
new uniform for the opening of their new
park The one they have now is good
enough, suppose, but il is so much ike
that of some of the other clubs that can
hardly tell our boys from the strangers
until look at them closely. Down at the
Bay the girls wear the colors of the clubs
ar the game, and the Atlas ought to have
distinctive colors, and they would see that
they had many friends down there when
they went away from home to play Just
dote on maroon. and if they will wear
caps and have trimmings of that color [
will wear yard of it every time they
play" After such an appeal as that, there
will doubtless be something done by the
gallant Directors of the club. Certainly
the uniform might be improved upon
1t isn't well to have too much blue. The
club and their friends are blue enough
when they suffer defeat
